I recently watch a movie about President Roosevelt and his struggle with polio,it was a very lovely movie,I enjoyed it very much. PR went to a particular place where polio were being treated.,there he met other people who had polio,one could say they bonded together.There came a day when left the place he was being treated,but before he left he said this to the residents,''Do what you do best,lift one another up''I think that is a challenge to us all,how do we do that?.Their are many ways,by showing kindness,love, ,and going the extra mile.A man in Angola walked 200 kilometres to a hospital in Zambia,he was asked why he did that ?,he said,'The people here show patients love and respect'.It is a Christian hospital,surely every Christian should show respect and love,,to everyone.Dont always preach at people,but offer to pray with them,and if thay need help ,help them.But do witness to them when you have an opportunity,everyone needs Jesus,never forget that,think of the words of David in Psalm 40,speaking of God's goodness,'He lifted me out of a slimy pit,out the a mud and mire; he set my feet on a rock,and gave me a firm place to stand'.Yes that's what the gospel does ,it lifts people up.
